Hi Linus,
This series arose from a review of hmm_range_fault() by Christoph, Ralph and
myself. Several bug fixes and some general clarity.
hmm_range_fault() is being used by these 'SVM' style drivers to
non-destructively read the page tables. It is very similar to get_user_pages()
except that the output is an array of PFNs and per-pfn flags, and it has
various modes of reading.
This is necessary before RDMA ODP can be converted, as we don't want to have
weird corner case regressions, which is still a looking forward item. Ralph
has a nice tester for this routine, but it is waiting for feedback from the
selftests maintainers.
Regards,
Jason

mm/hmm: return error for non-vma snapshots (2020-03-27 20:19:25 -0300)
----------------------------------------------------------------
hmm related patches for 5.7
This series focuses on corner case bug fixes and general clarity
improvements to hmm_range_fault().
- 9 bug fixes
- Allow pgmap to track the 'owner' of a DEVICE_PRIVATE - in this case the
owner tells the driver if it can understand the DEVICE_PRIVATE page or
not. Use this to resolve a bug in nouveau where it could touch
DEVICE_PRIVATE pages from other drivers.
- Remove a bunch of dead, redundant or unused code and flags
- Clarity improvements to hmm_range_fault()
----------------------------------------------------------------
Christoph Hellwig (9):
mm/hmm: don't provide a stub for hmm_range_fault()
mm/hmm: remove the unused HMM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY flag
mm/hmm: simplify hmm_vma_walk_hugetlb_entry()
mm/hmm: don't handle the non-fault case in hmm_vma_walk_hole_()
mm: merge hmm_vma_do_fault into into hmm_vma_walk_hole_
memremap: add an owner field to struct dev_pagemap
